Josep Maria Minguella, a former football agent with ties to FC Barcelona, claimed in the programme 'La Porteria' that Barça turned down the chance to sign Kylian Mbappe in the summer. And he knows this because he was the person that offered the player to the club!
"On the 5th August I offered Mbappe to Barça. They didn't respond and now I believe they commited an error which will impact Barcelona for the next 10 years," says Minguella. The former agent also claims that the PSG star would've jumped at the chance to sign for the Catalan giants. "His father told me that Kylian would've loved to have played alongside Leo Messi."
Mbappe, who is now one of the world's best players, wasn't chosen by Barça who instead opted for Ousmane Dembele.

Everyone wants to play alongside Messi. This is great. Players join Barcelona not only because Barcelona is one of the biggest clubs in the world but also because they will get a chance to play alongside the best player in the world.

i still prefer dembele over mbappe. No offense but dembele can be better player than Mbappe. All he have do is change his attitude and become more profession. If he managed to do so then he can become one of the best players in the world

what has mbappe become . just because we didn't sign him doesn't mean we made a mistake. ok then ,PSG who signed him where are they now? aren't they still leading their farmer's league as always and even almost at the brink of UCL elimination??? we will build the players we signed ( Malcolm and dembele ) to equally become world greats
